[Delineate-users] RE: Installing delineate in Win XP

[calvicius <cal...@we...>]

Hello,

I'm using Windows XP - Service Pack 2 and I got delineate running.

Follow these steps and it should work. I installed just now delinate
on a new pc following these instructions...


Java J2SE 1.4.2
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html

- Download the  Java(TM) 2 SDK, Standard Edition 1.4.2_06
- run the exe-file
- Now set your JAVA_HOME environment variable to the location where
   you have Java installed.
   In Windows XP you can add this environment variable by going to:
   -> Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced
   -> Environment Variables
   Click the New button:
   - enter the variable name as JAVA_HOME, and
   - enter the variable value as the location where Java is installed,
     for example: c:\Progs\Java\j2re1.4.2_01


+++ IMPORTANT +++     Now Restart your Computer!!!    +++ IMPORTANT +++


AutoTrace 0.31
http://autotrace.sourceforge.net/

- Extract autotrace to e.g. c:\progs\autotrace
   > All files of autotrace (*.dll, *.exe) are now in this directory.
- Check if autotrace is working:
   At the prompt:
   - Change to the directory: cd c:\progs\autotrace
   - Copy a picture into the directory (here 02.jpg)
   - run autotrace.exe 02.jpg
   - after a while you can read %%EOF, so it works
     (I don't know, why there is no aoutput file!?!)


potrace 1.5
http://potrace.sourceforge.net/

- Extract potrace to e.g. c:\progs\potrace
   > All files of potrace (*.dll, *.exe) are now in this directory.
- Set the path to c:\progs\potrace
   alternatively copy potrace.exe, mkbitmap.exe and cygwin1.dll to
   c:\windows


delineate

- Extract delineate e.g.to c:\progs\delineate
- You can find a directory 0.5 in c:\progs\delineate

-> At leatst change to the bin-directory: cd c:\progs\delineate\0.5
    and run the program: delineate.bat



If it isn't working:
Check and change your directory-names: avoid characters like
. ,  or <space> etc. Use max 8 characters per name. If you're changing
the names, think on the variable for JAVA_HOME.

All this information you can find at http://delineate.sourceforge.net/
